What is Cyber Gomoku?
Gomoku's easy-to-understand method of arranging 5 of your stones either vertically, horizontally, or diagonally remains the same. This is a browser game originally developed by this site that adds three abilities: ``Stealth Go Stone'', ``Go Stone Bomb'', and ``Stone Radar''.
Normal Gomoku is a perfect-information game where both players share all the information on the board. In Cyber Gomoku, there are stones that are invisible to the opponent and bombs that change the board, so Instead of just counting the stones you can see, you need to deduce the opponent's aim and unidentified locations. For those who know the basics and those who are trying Gomoku for the first time, It was designed with the goal of delivering a reading experience that can only be achieved digitally, where the situation changes with each move.

You can play Tournament, where you aim to be the winner, and Daily Danger Challenge, a thrilling daily mode in which a large number of bombs are pre-placed on the board.
When you press the GamePix version button, the external gaming platform "GamePix" will open in a new tab.

3 special abilities
Abilities are powerful, but using them doesn't guarantee victory. It's important to think about the information you give your opponent, when to use it, and how you exchange it for regular stone placement opportunities. In an actual game, the very fact that you preserve your abilities puts pressure on your opponent.
Stealth Go Stone — Hide
Place a stone that cannot be seen on the opponent's screen and hide your aim until just before completion. Attacks and defenses are created even in places that the opponent thinks are blank spots.
Go stone bomb — destroy
It is an ability that involves the stones on the board and breaks the shape that has already been formed. You are asked not only to stop the opponent's run, but also to choose a position that will lead to your next attack.
Stone Radar — search
Investigate the specified area and get stealth Go stone clues. The flow of the game will change depending on whether you use it for defense or to attack with peace of mind.
Actual game screen
The board has cyan and magenta stones placed on a dark background, making it easy to see at a glance where the stones belong and what they are being controlled with. During the game, in addition to your normal moves, you will also decide when to use your selected ability. Although the on-screen presentation may be flashy, the winning/losing decision is based on five consecutive matches, which is the basics of Gomoku.
